Two Poots Thanksgiving Weekend

This long weekend was amazing! We got to spend time with friends and family and accomplished so much! Take a look for yourself:*We spread a little Christmas Glee throughout Two Poot Manor**We spent the night before Thanksgiving helping my mom prepare the yummy food!*

*Had a blast playing Cranium! We have had this game for almost a year and never played it! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!*

*Picked up a new FREE stove! We have been needing one for awhile and thanks to some burnt cookies I took to work we now have a new stove! My sweet co-worker Kims mom gave it to us! I love it!!!!*

*Scott performed in a reading of The Christmas Carol. He is a great Scrooge!!*

*Tonight we drove around Kansas City looking at all the lights. I love this time of year in the city!*

I am sad to see it all come to an end! How was your weekend? What were you most thankful for?

ohhh so cute! I love your little owl wreath!!!! Yay KC Plaza. I must say I will miss the lights. The boyfriend and I drove by it last night and I felt a little sad (the past 2 years we lived one block from the main strip of the plaza (by Z Gallerie). It was always so much fun at this time of year. :)
